I feel very excited to see Rachel using her power, it was time for her to wake up, Rachel Summers, Mother Askani is back at last, although I am nervous about her future. There are still no clues of her in the next event.
Love seeing Rachel kicking some ass and showing her true power! Mother Askani had some residual Phoenix energy even after the Force left her. Having merged with her Mother Askani self, seems to have put Rachel in a quasi-phoenix state (I don't really differentiate between Rachel's and Jean's connection to the Phoenix and their innate power potential as I consider them to be connected and ultimately the same).
Rachel merging with her Askani self last issue was very similar to Jean merging with the the Phoenix (in golden woman form) in Classic X-Men and Endsong.
Rachel definitely deserves this moment to shine after all the crap they have put her through.
All the leftover traces of the PF left Mother Askani when she died (those energies were what was sustaining Scott and Jean in the future). But who knows with continuity being a mess. i just don't want her to stay in the future as, to me, it doesn't make sense and would be a waste to bring her character back and toss her away.
True, but I never buy it when they try to say that all traces of the Phoenix have left Rachel or Jean.
Even if this is all Rachel's innate power its still a Phoenix-like state for her. Even Teen Jean's pink form was a very Phoenix-like power up.
I agree, I hope Rachel stays around as well. Or if she is written out for a while, it is a short break.
I would like to see more of Rachel's power to astral project through time and space. They could use that power to have her effectively have premonitions and psychometric flashes by briefly astral projecting into the future and past to get important information.
I hope we get something between Cable and Rachel on X-force. They have a weird relationship but cute and this boook exist becuase Cable was trying to rescue her.
Also he is younger than her again, i want to see them interacting like that.

When was the last time they actually interacted in the books. Cable and Deadpool? Was she in that?
That's a splash poster /cover for Hickman. It could mean nothing, like when she was on the Disassembled cover. I don't think we're going to get a kid Havok or 3 wolverines as the cover promotes.
Yeah, when Deadpool was wearing the original Marvel Girl outfit
I'm inclined to disagree based on nothing more than my gut
If Hickman really is gonna be the architect of the X-Men for next couple of years I definitely think we could be getting every single one of those characters on the splash the man has some really wacky ideas.
